Granting user permission to modify distribution group membership in Outlook

Since upgrading our Exchange 2010 servers to SP3 Update RU4, a user has complained that they can no longer modify members of a distribution group.

As an administrator, I cant modify it either, but if I add myself as an owner to this group, which is a requirement for any group you modify\create now, I can modify it. If I make the user an owner, they still cannot modify membership. This is the case for new of existing groups whether the user is a member or not.

Thanks for your feedback. Looks like EEhotline has the answer with resolution 3 being a possible culprit as the user connects to a different GC to Exchange, although I've not had time to test any of it yet. I will get back to you when I have.
